Graduation

Teachers and parents alike dabbed their eyes with pride as their little ones stepped up to the stage to receive their nostalgia album, sang the graduation song they'd been paining us with several times a day for the last month, and bowed to the crowd letting their mini mortar boards slip down in front of their faces. An opportunity for photographs and flower giving as the final year kindergarten students gained their position as alumni, joining that exclusive club many of their parents and siblings are long held members.

In other news, wandering the streets of Itaewon we came across this guy: an old Korean man selling hand made wall hangings. Impressed by his quick hand, eye for neon paint combinations and oriental facial hair, we indulged his trade and bought our names in flouncy decoration.
